Tell me about it. I was under 21 when I went to that show and had to fork over the cash for those damn vouchers. As a starving college student, that $8 was a week's worth of Top Ramen. As shitty as their policies are, its still a damn fine venue to see a band. Saw Electrafixion there twice (well once, the first time Ian cancelled the show an hour before showtime due to illness). Great times. On 4/14/06, Brian Andersen wrote: > 96? With inflation those cokes will be $10 a peice.

I've been the Galaxy many times, including seeing Electrfixion twice, it's primarily general admission, no way they can keep track of a drink minimum.

They forced you to pay for at least two drinks (which weren't cheap) whether you wanted them or not! There was even a minimum price that the drinks had to be. It's a racket!!! I can't imagine them forcing you to pay for 2 drinks after also paying a $25 entrance fee too, though! That's even worse!
